Playing possum

Anyone heard of New Zealand possum wool?

Sounds a bit improbable but apparently possums are destroying the ecology of New Zealand and they won't stand for it. The corpses are stripped of their fur and this is blended with other wools to make a luxurious textile.

I quite fancy some of that, doing two good things at once!
